There's one example! I'm sure there are other places such as your local autoparts store would have something that would work. Take one in that you haven't messed all up and see what they have.

I got some from Tommy at Finishline as Mazurfer linked, but Autozone and similar also have a selection of plastic clips.

You can get them from Mazda dealers around 70-80 cents each.

yeah, its pretty expensive for that tiny piece of plastic and it breaks just like *that*

Last year, I got 100 of them for about 52 cents each so far Im down to 70 something.
